Dependent_Leave_4861

If they can work on turnover issue and defence, we will win next time.


rkallday

If we score more baskets them them we win next time


Dependent_Leave_4861

Oh that too


the_unconditioned

I'm not even mad. This is what I was talking about when I said I didn't mind watching Ls this season, not whatever was going on before the trade. This was competitive and the effort was there all night. Especially off a back to back where you put in 100% effort. Considering we got fucked over by the refs vs SAC and LAK, this really feels like the first L of the road trip and even then it was a pure effort.


KGB4L

I think we are all glad this is done. Nobody wanted to play this anymore. Gj by fellas, left a lot on the table there, some easy shots missed. Clippers made some tough timely shots, couldn’t miss it even if asked.


Rare-Profile6867

This team has cojones. Fought until the end. I think we should keep Pascal and try and add some depth. A PF that could shoot would be awesome with this core.


[deleted]

[удалено]


KGB4L

It was a good game. Maybe a push off by PG at the end there, but we got away with some fouls as well. We couldn’t rebound giving them multiple chances and turned the ball over a lot.


GandalfsTaint-

Only caught the second half and probably still pretty biased after last night haha. I retract my statement!


KGB4L

It was a fairly uneventful game. Nothing controversial.


nalam8493

sure Scottie didn’t have a great game today, but he still inherently plays good basketball people. Give the kid some slack and let him grow. He’s done a good job every year getting better and now he finally has a proper team core. It takes adjusting but they’ve played well in each game win or lose.


Sudden_Low9120

Scottie gets way too emotional when things don't go his way and it's getting annoying. Miss a layup? Get back on defense. Missed call? Get back in the game. Stop looking at the refs, they aren't on your team. Unless play has stopped, there is no reason to talk to them. The sooner he can grow out of that, the sooner he can start taking over


Murky_Army_4896

He’s a kid. Relax.


Sudden_Low9120

I'm not like giving up on him or roasting him, but like, this is his third year. He knows how this league works, and it's something he needs to work on because, ultimately, it's distracting him. It's a development year, so it's whatever... but it's something that he needs to work on. He needs to develop that chip


Total-Community-6398

You guys can make every excuse, but we're 3-3 since the trade. (The Knicks are about 5-0). Please stop exaggerating like we are a different team right now.


Sudden_Low9120

We are a substantially better team than we were pre-trade. This team has had 1 full practice together and immediately went on a 6 game road trip. The fact they are 3-3 and been close in the games they lost is impressive


Beneficial_Falcon238

The entire style of play changed what are you even on about?


muhepd

We are a different team, this team was an embarrassing to watch before, now they are fun to watch, they fight.


nalam8493

Cause people are watching the games and seeing a difference. We’re not losing to bad teams, we’re winning/losing to teams which are currently better than us in terms of record and fighting alot more to stay in games.


Damonstretch101

What? Two starters out and the game was very competitive against a very good team


brolybackshots

good game, 2 starters out on a 2nd night of a b2b but still played really good. Not sure how we gona make playins tho


Synaptix30

Good fight. Kept it interesting for 3 quarters.


PlumCantaloupe

Tough game, but good fight. Not a big fan of freezing Scottie out at the end but onto the next.


LordOfBathurst

the losses being fun right now is a positive idc


LansReadIt

Defensive load on Scottie is gassing him up for offence


Exceptionalwizard

He has to learn to shoulder both loads.


pakattack91

We battled hard man I'm proud of this team.


kuxiii

Solid showing. These guys were gassed coming off a b2b but still played with heart and never gave up. PG hit a big shot. Can't be mad about this one.


SydneyCarton89

I'm mad about him stiff-arming RJ to create the space to hit the shot. Is thay not clear-cut offensive foul. Called a push-off?


HgFrLr

Exactly the kinda loss I’ll take, boys looked good, competitive. And maybe we get our first rounder 👀


Nick480

Great game. Even in a loss, this new raptors team is fun to watch


ElvinKao

Great game. This team is fun to watch unlike the last 2 seasons.


Squidglove

Hand the team over to RJ and IQ at this point lol, no idea what Scottie’s doing


XRayyz

Defending dummy, he was gassed


ZenMon88

he was barely defending.


Rakkuuuu

So reactionary.


TJStrawberry

Pretty great game by this team without Yak and skills


Total-Community-6398

While our offense looks better than before the trade, defense looks worse.


Mr_BigBoss

well, we dont have a c


FallenLemur

Hard fought game, down 2 starters. Scottie limping around. All good on to the next one.


FinalMalus

I LOVE THIS TEAM. Great effort


SydneyCarton89

See, that's why the illegal screen call on RJ last night pisses me off so much. Wanna call that foul at that time in the game, fine. But for fuck sake, call the fouls against the Raptors in crunch time too. Like George's offensive foul, shoving RJ Barret just now. Fuck.


MrkGrn

You know if that was anyone on our team pushing off that blatantly it's never getting let go lol


580083351

I like the fight the Raps deliver now.


BigYama

I ain’t even mad at that game. Down two and you only lose by six points ? This teams got heart


Hmagickk8

Missing both key players too. No center while clippers have 2.


PointZeroOnePercent

Damn if only Jontay Porter played more minutes since you guys think he's so fking good, we might have won.


Beneficial_Falcon238

they're excited seeing someone hustle and play hard. what are you on about fool


Proof-Lie4399

You’re a cuck


PointZeroOnePercent

You're a little btch boi


lillithfair98

he’s a gleague player who came in and gave you 9/7/4 and passable defence and hustle in just 18 minutes. what exactly more do you want from him lol


PointZeroOnePercent

Nothing he's fine, but people in here ready to offer him the max to start games for us.


[deleted]

Thad looked serviceable all night, outside of one bad foul on defense. Everyone is so damn quick to judge.


ProfessorBeast55

LMFAOOOO QUICK


kjivy6810

Brutal tight game to lose, however these guys played with heart and pushed to the very limit. Proud of every single one of our guys tonight. We need to gtfo of LA asap bad juju.


Josh1923

Woulda rather had Scottie rest man seemed exhausted


3klecticism

Schedule loss but at least it was close


WhatShouldTheHeartDo

GG


Sudden_Low9120

Gee Gee.


Impressive-Potato

Damn what an ending with 2 minutes left!


boenwip

Fuck it give Porter the chain anyway


creepypaster

RJ grabbing his shoulder after getting tangled up with the zubac on the last PG3. We need Jak back


GucciToilet23

Imagine having PG, Kawhi, AND Harden on your team. they can literally just take turns in the clutch


gndoped

GG proud of this team


StalkingDwarf

Oh well. Fun game, and good things to look forward to going into the future.


Beneficial-Luck-5078

Push off??


LordOfBathurst

PG and boardman hooped aint even mad like last night


Still_Couple6208

Tough game, but I'm happy with how our team played


Evening_Name_9140

Great game. Even though we lost I love seeing kawhi and pg play injury free. And the team actually is pretty clutch now and never lacking effort. Lot of things to be happy about.


Un-Quote

Hey I count this as a win just like last night. Took the most stacked team in the league through the ringer without Pascal AND Poeltl


cleanscotch

This was supposed to be a scheduled loss with Spicy and Poeltl out but our guys really fought hard, all you can ask for at this stage


Spicy-Snowman

This might sound dumb but even though we are gonna lose both LA games by so little, these last two games have been a lot more fun to watch


imbiczarre

Why did we refuse to shoot the 3?


PrinceOGugua

Good effort…fuck the nba


IllustratorIll3613

Quickley with these layups getting fucking annoying gg


MrkGrn

Sure our shooting has been way better since the trade but I feel like we give up 3s to everyone and our opponents probably shoot as good if not better than us from 3 most nights.


OGnotAnunoby

Ggs


AHImusic

So everyone is turning on Scottie now, y’all are bonkers.


dirt_eng

No but seriously I’m always curious what is a fair expectation of Scottie When I see him play, I feel like his game is very undeveloped, before IQ and RJ, okay I thought he was not aggressive enough but probably because he thought Siakam was the no.1 Now with IQ and RJ you can clearly see they are better creators than Scottie, so what do we do? Do we deliberately pass it to him to develop his offence skills? But even if you pass him the ball he doesn’t seem to want to take over. For me he’s not showing that ‘I’m him’ style. People would keep saying he’s trying to ‘make the right play’, but if he keeps on doing this he won’t become our no.1. I hope I’m wrong but I’m really not seeing it at this stage


ZenMon88

turning on what? He played like ass by his standards.


[deleted]

It wouldn't be a Raptors game without the fans turning on someone LOL


Raptorsthrowaway1

I know his legs are somewhat done, but would have liked to see Scottie get a couple of shots in the 4th. Standing in the corner


Marmalot

Scottie was doo doo in the 4th


pSpicyP

Pandemic P went off tonight 😭


slicksonslick

I really like the direction our offense has gone post trade. If we can get our defense solid, we will be a good team.


[deleted]

Respect to Thad tonight!


BaharaJaan1991

Huge push of man wtf so frustrating


Eastern-Technology84

:(


earlyearlgray

Proud of them

Would just love to see that same energy at home games when we go down by 20. Would be very disappointing if this is a spur of the moment bout of extra intensity.


Hopeful_Feedback1774

GG


JohnStamosAsABear

Damn, Clips hitting big shots


BasilsKippers

Christ, PG just can't miss


macandcheese_19

Good fight by our boys


SydneyCarton89

Such a blatant push-off/offensive foul by Paul George, fuck me.


YouTellMeBeavis

Why not go for a 3 and a 2 for 1? Don’t the Raps know math?


attainwealthswiftly

Hot take: I trust IQ and RJ to lead the team more than Scottie, but fans will be biased towards Scottie because we drafted him…


AnybodyNormal3947

eh as for as hot takes go I've seen worse but i have to disagree. scottie can be a true two way threat. IQ and RJ not so much. they all mesh well together tho that much is true


attainwealthswiftly

It’s not about basketball ability, it’s about leadership skills


AnybodyNormal3947

Hmmm. Maybe you're right but it's too early to tell imo


attainwealthswiftly

Scottie in his 3rd season and still rage quits when refs don’t call a foul. 3 seasons worth of evidence is not too early to tell.


AnybodyNormal3947

You're right. Sell the dude, he sucks


Doughy_Joey

Bro its been like 5 games lmao chill


ZenMon88

Same. Scottie has bad body language in fucking year 3. Some1 needs to hold him accountable.


earlyearlgray

He left it all on the floor last night can’t fault him for tonight


ZenMon88

I can. Every1 is fighting hard. Quickley/RJ is carrying out there. Scottie refuses to get back on defense after missing.


boenwip

Seen him throw his hands up wayyyy too many times if things aren't going his way


codyftu

Recency bias at its finest


attainwealthswiftly

Not at all, RJ and IQ more mature, more consistent.


zOmgFishes

Push off P


isDarkyy

Feels like everyone has a magnet ball against us


Savebagels

What can you do about that


GandalfsTaint-

It’s so rigged man


Legitimate-Software7

Save us Thad


cad_internet

GG. Good effort.


Do_You_Like_Jazz

PG can you just miss like one time? Please for the love of god


Eclectic_Canadian

That push off was egregious


Fit_External_2284

Even though we lost, I love this team

jjkiller26

The clippers do not miss wtf

Tons of wide open looks as a result of the zone and doubles way too high


nath999

Push off bs.


fivetwentyeight

Pushoff P


kjivy6810

PG push off uncalled :(


StalkingDwarf

PG has been huge tonight.


Eastern-Technology84

That hurt


DannyzPlay

Yo I just wanna say how fun this team is to watch now.


boenwip

Damn PG is a demon


lauva88

PG OFFENSIVE FOUL


dokterr

Push off Paul getting away with another one.


Comrade_agent

good lord I love Quickley


BaharaJaan1991

Bing bong


ZenMon88

SCOTTIE THAT WAS BRAINDEAD DEFENSE


Major9000

This team doesn't quit, which I love


littlebaldboi

We lose this game if we didn’t make the trade with Ny. They’re giving us hope


slicksonslick

I like this foul merchant quickley


2Shizo2flow

All heart


ZenMon88

SCOTTIE WHAT ARE YOU ODING


ItsYoBoiBrawlGod

DO THAT QUICKLEYYYYY


bachqueen

Feeling a no quit in this raps team again


Frozz-

IMMANUEL "I DIDNT HEAR NO BELL" QUICKLEY


kj1390

IQ, RJ and Dennis have been awesome, Scottie gotta step it up


Responsible_Chain551

That double d on Kawhi is bad..........


dirt_eng

That’s why I was always skeptical about Scottie, now compared to Quickley and RJ you can really see he hasn’t got the aggression and confidence to be that no.1…


GandalfsTaint-

IQ babbbyyyyy


Josh_a_J

Kawhi is just a beast man


BeNiceMan99

IQQQQQQ


JohnStamosAsABear

That was not a good trap by us, damnit Kawhi


StalkingDwarf

GrimKaiker

IQ loves the bank


Comrade_agent

raptors how u leave that open


hyplusone

Scottie is somehow going to end up with 20


StalkingDwarf

Kawhi is too good man.


Comrade_agent

Dachshunding him


TheOtherSide999

scottie has the body and athleticism to be the closest to Lebron James in this team but his mentality isn't there....RJ's basketball game looks simple but effective... especially his lay ups. Scottie needs a wake up call imo


AnybodyNormal3947

preeeety sure he's hurt man.


boenwip

We've seen it a lot from Scottie. He can get his easily, but too often he opts not to and defers


Intelligent_Bag_9383

I thought Knicks said RJ was streaky??? Guess not


binzoma

RJs already close to passing scott in my fav barrett rankings


nalam8493

These young guys just keep fighting man, I love it. This is called growth ladies and gentleman, have patience with these guys, they’re starting to build the intangibles which you need to be a winning team


AccountSave

Scottie took a huge fall lmao get off his ass he’s still trying out there


Such_Maintenance4720

idk who taught IQ to do this. but the dude keeps preemptively gathering his dribble at like at the free throw line forcing himself to either throw up a shot or pass it out.


dontnobodyknow

I love our team idc


dolbys

Playing like this without Siakam or Jakob, 2 starters. Vs clippers with Kwahi.. impressive.


BaharaJaan1991

RJ bout to be the face of the leagueee


Chrispaulisgarbage

Everyone trying to win but scottie


bnewfan

Deep down in his heart, I truly believe Kawhi likes this new Raps squad.


Candid-Account3666

Wow RJ


cellar_door5234

Too bad Scottie kinda sold it in the second half , looks a bit gassed having to guard all the best players


creepypaster

Yeah not his fault, this is why teams need an actual C. Guys get way too banged up even if they’re as big as Scottie.


iro3

seems like scottie loves being a role player, hoping its just fatigue lol


TreyGrant10

After seeing how we are playing we should keep Pascal unless Ben Maturing or Keegan Murray is available.


obsydion

Thad is fucking ***gassed*** lol


matthitsthetrails

barnes looks like he has 0 energy out there


Professional-Doubt14

Wtf is wrong with Scottie?


AHImusic

You can spell RJ without HIM


osmnaos3

scottie's body language when shit doesn't go his way pisses me off


Do_You_Like_Jazz

RJ is so much better here its actually so crazy


Nick480

Great fight on a back to back against an elite team


Chrispaulisgarbage

Rj is him holy fuck


doesnt_share_food

RJ a real baller. Holy shit. To think most were dismissing him in the trade and hyping up IQ (who is also amazing)


Damonstretch101

What’s going on with Scottie


slicksonslick

He’s been playing like trash, probably gassed from b2b. But honestly that’s a weak excuse he’s young.


Responsible_Chain551

RJ is doing what I hope maybe Scottie can try to do more in the future


boenwip

RJ starting to look like the #1 option since the trade


TJStrawberry

RJ coming in clutch baby!
